2017 FREE Power of Attorney Event

Attorneys from the Ozaukee County Bar Association will be available to meet individually with County residents to assist them in completing their Power of Attorney for Health Care. Documents and assistance will be provided free of charge.

Completing a Power of Attorney allows a person to choose the individual he/she would want to make medical decisions in the event that the person is unable to make them for him/herself. In Wisconsin, spouses and children do not automatically have this authority. Completed Power of Attorney documents can help families avoid costly and time-consuming court proceedings.

Appointments are open to anyone age 55 and older, as well as to persons with a disability determination. Appointments will be scheduled on the 1/2 hour. Contact Ozaukee County Human Services at 262-284-8200 (metro: 262-238-8200).

September 26 - Port Washington Senior Center - 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM
